i wanna know exactly of what matrial are the neutrons made up of?
dont tell me more n more subatomic particles like neutrino and all...but exactly of what kinda material? ....
its the neutrons themselves which makes up the OTHER MATHERIALS...so what about themselves?
and moreover....what about the PROTONS and the ELECTRONS?
how come they are charged?...we say charging is due to the fact of the dipoles in the materials at an atomic level....but what about the electrons n protons themselves?
please explain if you may....maybe it has got something to do with their spin n all?
i do not know much about the sub-sub atomic particles(like neutrino n all)...i only have knowlege as to neutrons n protons and the like .....which are the sub atomic particles...so dont miss out on the points but as simply as u can (i'm in high school,15)

okay...next ppl who answer can git a more bit of xtra knowlege

and hey!...what about the elcetrons and the protons being charged?

2007-02-05 17:04:17 · update #2

OH SORRY!...I WROTE BY MISTAKE 'NEUTRONS' ARE CHARGED..I AM TRULY SORRY...ITS THE ELECTRONS WHICH ARE CHARGED...I NOTINCED JUST NOW

They are made up of two particles : (1) Quarks, &, (2) Leptons.

A...Protons and Neutrons are considered to have equivalent mass. B...The Electron has the least mass at a million/1840th of the mass of a Proton or Neutron. C...The Proton has a positive fee, the electron a unfavorable fee and the Neutron (as its call implies, is impartial). (Protons and Neutrons form the Nucleus of the atom and together are called 'Nucleons'.).

hi catty,
a good question at your age
you have to first understand the evolution of the theories when it came to the structure of the atom.
at first it was molecules then they said atom is the indivisible unit
after nuclear physics came there was evidence of sub atomic particles like the electron, proton, neutron
you need to know that no one has ever seen an electron or a neutron hence theories are built on certain assumptions
if the theory can explain certain observed phenomenon then it is a success else it is discarded
the latest theory is that even electrons,protons and neutrons are
made of particles called 'QUARKS' pronounced as kwaarks
there are six fundamental quarks up, down, top, bottom, charm,strange- funny names
a proton is made of three quarks, so is a neutron
the combinations decide the properties
you can look up to any nuclear physics text or consult your teacher for basics
but this theory has been very successful as of now
let's wait for more

The current theory is that both protons and neutrons are made of three quarks: two ups and a down for one, one up and two downs for the other. Neutrons on the loose are unstable, popping an electron after ten minutes or so; one of the quarks reverses its sense in the process. Electrons are elementary particles; they have no constituents.

All I can say is that first subatomic particles are also know as quarks, second go check out wikipidia, almost all that type of stuff is over almost everyone's head... sorry I actually cant help that much.

Neutron were not made up of mistakes. Also, not that neutrons are averse to CHARGE but they do not show off their charge trading.

Einstein to businessman:---

If I give you some money , you will be richer and I'll be poorer. But if I give you an idea (read mistake), you will have a new idea but I shall still have it, too.
